Johnson City, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 166 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 166-25
Hearing on revocation of permit
Operative Text
Any person whose permit to operate a rooming house has been revoked or who has received notice from the enforcement officer that his or her permit is to be revoked unless existing conditions or practices at his or her rooming house are corrected may request and shall be granted a hearing on the matter before the Zoning Board of Appeals under the procedure provided by § 166-15 ; provided that such person must file the petition for hearing within 10 days following receipt of notice of permit revocation.
Section 166-25 of the Johnson City Code establishes a hearing right for rooming house operators facing permit revocation. When an enforcement officer revokes a permit or issues a notice of intent to revoke unless conditions are corrected, the affected operator is entitled to a formal hearing before the Zoning Board of Appeals. The hearing follows the procedures set out in § 166-15, but the right is contingent on filing a petition within 10 days of receiving the revocation notice.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 166-25, rooming house operators who receive a revocation notice or a conditional notice to correct violations have a defined window to act: a petition for hearing must be filed within 10 days of receiving that notice. Compliant operators generally keep records of when official notices are received and are familiar with the Zoning Board of Appeals procedures referenced in § 166-15. Operators who wish to contest a revocation typically ensure their petition is submitted within that strict 10-day period to preserve their right to a hearing.

Section 166-25 governs the process by which a rooming house operator can challenge a permit revocation before the Zoning Board of Appeals. If a rooming house where you live is subject to permit revocation proceedings, this process may affect the property's legal operating status. Tenants in such situations may wish to contact a local tenant-rights organization or housing authority to understand how a revocation or hearing outcome under § 166-25 could affect their housing.
